I’m surprised the credit card company acted in this manner. I “hired” a lawyer - later I realize how scummy and potentially illegal their services were - for about $3,000. They proceeded to perform about what I would consider next to no work on my behalf. I contacted my cc company to perform a chargeback and was denied. Upon further reflection I should have sued the lawyer in small claims court but I was somewhat embarrassed by the whole affair and just let it drop. Unfortunately in this case I feel like upwork is worse than not as you’re not directly negotiating and proving your case to the cc company. I would imagine upwork put about zero effort into defending this guy, because hey, he’ll just work for free for the next two months! No risk here!
